24 May 2017

ODEON’s seven screen cinema centred in Oldham’s Old Town Hall, a Grade II listed building, has won
numerous accolades with its combination of modern architecture and key heritage elements. These
wonders include the preservation of the Crown Court, a beautiful staircase, Minton and terrazzo tile
floors, and some priceless paintings depicting the industrial heritage of the area.

Recent awards include:

· Three RICS (Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors) North West 2017 Awards – ‘Project of the
Year’, ‘Innovation through Design’ and ‘Regeneration’

· GGB Award 2016 – ‘Best Built Project of the Year’, awarded in honour of the BDP founder Sir
George Grenfell Baines

· Mixology North 2016 – ‘Hospitality Interiors Project of the Year’

RICS Judges quote (Project of the Year): “Standing out from an exceptional range of winning projects
across all the categories, the judges awarded Project of the Year to Oldham Town Hall. The project
celebrates a combination of integrated partnership working, innovation, commercial acumen and
foresight in a challenging economic climate to deliver a truly outstanding centrepiece to Oldham City
Centre. The blend of old and new, architectural preservation and enhancement alongside advanced
technology are the key ingredients of this new visitor destination which is open to all.”

Mixology Judges quote: “Transforming this Grade 2 listed Town Hall into a multiplex cinema was no
mean feat. The judges were really impressed with how the contemporary elements of the design were
integrated into the project in such a sensitive way. A unique, meticulous and truly stunning renovation.”
